No_Problemo Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 I would be happy enough with that as a striker option, certainly not as our main striker to replace Dowds though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F.T.O.F.1910 Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 Maybe it's just agents trying to get a better deal from Morton for him.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muZZa__44 Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 as a second choice beside a goal scorer i would not have an issue with that him and Dowds would be a very physical strike force 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No offence to Ayr but if he does leave, I'd expect it would be to a bigger club or at least a club with better resources than both of us. If we do lose him to you, I'd start to question this better, attractive budget I've heard we apparently have. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye he looked like he could keep up with Fitzpatrick in a race which gives him a good chance in the league above. Also looked quite useful defending so if not Hibs someone else up there will take a punt 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuyIncognito Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 Oakley would be a good signing but if we're going to carry on with a 4-4-2 then I'd also like to see us go for a more techinical striker who can drop deep and link up with the midfield. Either that or we go 4-4-1-1 with a 10. I don't see a Dowds-Oakley partnership being that effective which leads me to believe Dowds isn't coming back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muZZa__44 Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 i think Dowds would be more willing to drop back and link up he's a smart enough footballer, of course that is provided we manage to bring him in as well 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyrExile Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 Tbf Imrie has been good at polishing a few turds and Morton have punched above their weight when everyone is fit. My one concern about signings coming from there is could they produce the same levels in a different system and manager. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moffat was the last player we had like that and while he obviously wasn't very fast as he got older his ability on the ball made up for that. Dowds is very similar to Oakley so I just don't see how we fit the two of them into the same team regardless of the shape. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itzdrk Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 George Oakley has just hit a career best and still didn't score double figures. Get that to f**k. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D'Jaffo Posted May 13 Author Share Posted May 13 I’ll take him as he knows the league but I’d be wanting someone else in as well. Would assume that’ll happen as we’ve lost Dowds AND Willoughby. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
